Good Day, Silverliners! What’s written in the stars for you this weekend? You may find me camped out in a random Illinois prairie because as it turns out, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Neptune and Uranus will line up in the early morning skies on June 17th! If you’re lucky enough, you might catch this space phenomenon (or perhaps be abducted by aliens). Fingers crossed for the former.
So, grab your binoculars and get that espresso shot ready, because these featured techies are about to blast off in this week’s edition of Cloud Career Moves — the Space Edition.
3, 2, 1… We have liftoff!
